This is kbd-0.87.tar.gz The programs loadkeys, dumpkeys and showkey were derived from Risto Kankkunen's kbd-0.81. The font loading code goes back to the codepage package by Joel Hoffman (joel@wam.umd.edu). (He tells me that the original reference is: "From: p. 307 of _Programmer's Guide to PC & PS/2 Video Systems_ by Richard Wilton. 1987. Microsoft Press".) The kernel and user interface for the font loading closely follows Eugene Crosser's intl_con package. [Similar things were done earlier by Jerry Kaidor (tr2!jerry@abekas.com, jkaidor@synoptics.com) : fontpak, H. Peter Anvin (hpa@nwu.edu) and Pavel Zaboj (xzaboj@vse.cs). Their code was not used, but the Latin-1 *.psf fonts were developed by H. Peter Anvin, and the Latin-2 ones by Pavel Zaboj.] This package contains keytable files and keyboard utilities compatible with kernel version 0.99pl14y and probably some newer ones. This distribution contains no binaries - the sources try to adapt to kernel version by using #ifdef for various ioctl's, so compile them yourself. To install this package, unpack it somewhere and issue the commands "make" and "make install". This copies the utilities to /usr/bin, man pages to /usr/man/man{1,5,8} and data files to the subdirectories keytables, consolefonts and consoletrans of /usr/lib/kbd.
